This week HP has its annual event, called HP Discover, in Las Vegas.  Previously this event was focused on hardware only and was called HP Tech Forum, but this year HP combined hardware and software into one uber event, called HP Discover.  If you are familiar with VMware’s VMworld – this event is very similar, only it focuses on HP products.  This is a great marketing event for HP but more importantly, it gives HP customers, partners and press insight into what’s happening with HP.

Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend HP Discover due to a well-timed, long overdue vacation – and I won’t be updating this blog.  However, I wanted to provide my readers with a source of how you can stay up-to-date with the announcements that HP will be providing during HP Discover.  I figured the best bet would be to provide you with a list of bloggers who will be blogging during the event:
